Oregon Coast
For a little rest and relaxation at the Oregon Coast, spend a weekend at Yachat’s Overleaf Lodge, which offers stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, not to mention elegant rooms with Jacuzzi tubs and an amazing spa, complete with treatments and massages as well as a beautiful tiled spa pool. www.overleaflodge.com
Salishan Spa & Golf Resort, Gleneden Beach - Pretty much everything about the Spa at Salishan is tranquil, from its views overlooking Siletz Bay to the design's incorporation of beautiful red cedar, natural stone and other materials indigenous to the Oregon Coast-even the water feature leading up to the entrance of the spa will transport you into peaceful mode.
The treatment menu is in line with the spa's philosophy, which is to live within the balance of nature. It offers the Ancient Forest Kur, a 3,000-year-old ritual of rejuvenation that begins with a full body massage using essential oils, followed by exfoliation and full immersion in a eucalyptus bath. Salishan also offers a variety of massages, hand-and foot-therapies and more. And to receive before and after treatments, guests may head to the Water Lounge, which features a whirlpool, rain shower and sauna. More information: www.salishanspa.com

Willamette Valley
In the North Willamette Valley wine country, The Black Walnut Inn is reminiscent of a Tuscan villa set up high among rolling vineyard hills. There are just nine suites, each elegantly appointed with high-quality linens, beautiful wood floors, soft colors and lighting—some have private balconies, all have gorgeous views. The inn is located just outside Dundee, in close proximity to dozens of wineries, vineyards and tasting rooms. More information: www.blackwalnut-inn.com
